Democracy = Criminality?

The Washington Post headline was straight out of The Onion: "Iran-Contra Figure to Lead Democracy Efforts Abroad." They were writing about Elliott Abrams. With a straight face. Further proof that under the Bush Administration truth is stranger than fiction.

Abrams was convicted in 1991 for lying to Congress about his role in trading profits from illegal arm sales to Iran for aid the Contras...As Ronald Reagan's Latin America hand, Abrams flew to London under the pseudonym "Mr. Kenilworth" to extract $10 million for the Contras from the Sultan of Brunei.
